If any of the 2 should be dropped in point it’s skumdrekk . All of this seems more like wishlist than real leak to me Edited February 2 by Grunbag Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only thing that I'd say would warrant removing is Crypt Ghast Courtier and they kept that for whatever reason. If the aim is to remove everything from WHFB, you are removing most of the line from FEC. Not saying it would happen, I feel it weird.

Man I hadn't seen the 6 armed stormcast I love that idea; I love anything that helps to emphasize "these aren't really people anymore: they're Sigmar's hammer" Space Marines get all kinds of tech upgrades, I'd like to see specialized stormcast that are physically different/unique. If a giant guy with six arms yelling "Praise Sigmar!" burst through my front door you'd know I'd be trying to hide the fact that I had the common cold I really don't want to see the Goats go to Destruction tbh: I actually don't mind "animal human hybrids" being something that's "natural" in the magic-soaked realms! Actually, emphasizing Morghur and mutation would be a pretty surface-level easy way to make it clear these aren't just some other hybrids from Ghur or Ghyran. Sigmar taught the "good" races how to be racist towards beastmen as he taught them his brand of Order. To me, that's extremely important. Maybe the goatfolk weren't, by default, chaotic. Maybe they always had a taint that they didn't even fully understand! Maybe the beastmen could have been part of Destruction, but who knows how Gorkamorka felt about 'em! If the ogroids already were bullied out of Ghur because they liked a roof over their heads, I could see the use of Herdstones twisting the realms unnaturally as problematic for Gorkamorka as well, or maybe their race really is just tainted... which would be interesting to unpack: if their fate was to always live in the woods as exiles, what does that mean for the individual? Like the goat that went to slaanesh after the newly-racist order factions slaughtered his tribe? I'm all for other fauns, centaurs, and cloven-hoofed races not being chaos by default! 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With what looks like the Darkoath riders coming they did show up in the Monsters episode of Hammer and Bolter and there was a cogfort in it as can be seen from the promotional image when the episode was announced. I want nothing more for COS than for Cogforts to come to AOS. I think its more of a matter of when then of if. GW plastics have come so far in such a short time. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BarakUrbaz Posted February 2 Share Posted February 2 For relevance, in Steam and Steel Cogforts are armed with a Helstorm Rocket Battery, two Incinerator Turrets and two Ironweld Cannons in addition to just being able to stomp on opponents with their legs. They also are armed with a Lightning Shield that increases its defence but gets disabled when it takes damage. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EonChao Posted February 2 Share Posted February 2 2 hours ago, Pizzaprez said: I agree with you completely! If 40k was "fantasy in space," sometimes AoS has felt like "40k, but fantasy" and, to me, that rules. The Stormcast are, narratively, everything I'd want to see in a Space Marine! Gargantuan, heroic, sometimes terrifying or unreasonable, people with pasts, people grappling with demons, people who have lost sight of the bigger picture, people that could hand a child a flower during a siege or stomp on said child depending on who they are, really cool stuff! All through a lense of hope/trying to do great instead of "the galaxy sucks so hard, man" I think a "Stormcast siege golem filled with the ghiests of those who can't be reforged anymore" could be unique next to the Dreadnought and Grey Knight baby carrier; I didn't even draw a parallel until y'all pointed it out! I think making it look like a statue possessed instead of "box with feet" would do a lot aesthetically Stormhosts = Chapters to a certain degree; Stormcast are the Fantasy Space Marines! I wouldn't want like a landspeeder or rhino, but some other parallels aren't too bad imo: i think they're neat! Honestly I agree with this 100%, I like the aesthetic of Space Marines and Stormcast (especially the more modern thunderstrike armour) but Stormcast do the characters so much better. The trauma of being taken for forging as their worlds were burning around them, the lost memories with reforging, the otherworldly divinity that begins to creep into them with reforging. And I think stormcast dreadnought golems are much more interesting than flagellants, although I think maybe one soul in each one rather than them being filled with multiple ghiests. 2 hours ago, Ejecutor said: Do you expect to have the purge so soon? There are going to be some ranges getting a decent trim, like FEC and CoS. They would feel quite poor once they only have purely their recent releases. They did remove the older Space Marine stuff that got rotated just before 10th ed came out so it makes some sense but I think it'll only be older Stormcast stuff 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also makes more sense with the latest stories. (Flagellants honestly sound like they were going off the Christmas rumor engines that looked like zealot flails) Sigmar & Ionus both want to save those older frayed souls and now that Ionus is bringing in Lethis equipment that could point to a stasis project and Peacewater which is a export from Lethis that can be distilled to make medicine that “soothes the mind and boldens the soul”. Venerable souls being put in big shells as they await a solution to the reforging flaws and called in dire circumstances(like Hammerhal Aqshy being duplexes by multiple chaos hordes) works better if those hints of Skaven exo-suits happen and we end up with quality duardin-made stormdreads vs quantity explody Skaven mechs. Then all that’s left is to finally give us Hamilcar vs Ikit to symbolize the move from Ghur to Chamon focus. 🦁 💥 🤖 Edited February 2 by Baron Klatz 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even before that, first mention was back at the end of the Seeds of Hope campaign in 2016 and the shift to the 2017 Firestorm Campaign. The Cogforts expanding Hammerhal Aqshy’s borders so fast is what lead to the 2017 WHQ:Shadows over Hammerhal as the slums used to be thriving markets until the city expanded and left them behind in the center. But also yeah just fun speculation, though I do think AoS is at it’s funnest when it embraces itself as “40k fantasy” going crazy with what it can do. Besides it’s not like super tech is alien to the fantasy universe. Just watch the final battle of the chaos dwarves when it’s copter & bomber air raids with rapid-fire guns & bombs vs mecha, artillery trains and rockets. (30:00 minute mark) But that’s the beauty of AoS and the Mortal Realms. You can easily have Freeguild common sword troops marching alongside Ghyran giant beetle riders, Ghur troopers in spidersilk mail with monster bone weapons and chamonites on clockwork creatures with grenade launchers and it all fits like a cosmic glove for the setting. 👌 He k this guy just posted his Freeguild general today and I’d love to see this mechanical monument in melee. 😍 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well that’s the problem, their is no rest for weaponized souls save oblivion. That’s why they become lightning gheists as Azyr pulls them up instead of Shyish in the UnderWorlds to rest at. Doesn’t really go against a stronger shell for them but eh or even better armor like Bastian got for his wounded soul. I’ll wait to see what they come up with. Would be interesting if that’s the purpose of Lethis and the underworld Cthorak went back to search for a soul vault of sorts instead of oblivion they’d suffer otherwise. 2 hours ago, ScionOfOssia said: So Vandus dies? I imagine they’ll set him up in something that could be risky for his fractured soul.(like a construct body to go out in a blaze of glory) Because if Khul gets him then I assure you that’s no final rest in chaos. 😬 Edited February 3 by Baron Klatz 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
